How To Hack iPhone Passcode 2016

There are multiple bypass vulnerabilities which could allow an attacker to get past the passcode lock screen on Apple devices running iOS 9.The details for four different attack scenarios were disclosed by Vulnerability Lab. It’s important to note that an attacker would need physical access to the device to pull this off; that being said, the advisory says the hacks were successfully executed on iPhone models 5, 5s, 6 and 6s as well as iPad models Mini, 1 and 2 running iOS 9 versions 9.0, 9.1 and 9.2.1.

lthough the Apple security team was reportedly notified on January 4, there are no dates listed in the vulnerability disclosure timeline for Apple responding or developing a patch. Vulnerability Lab proposed the following temporary solution for users to harden device settings:

Deactivate in the Settings menu the Siri module permanently.

Deactivate also the Events Calendar without passcode to disable the push function of the Weather Channel LLC link.

Deactivate the next step the public control panel with the timer and world clock to disarm exploitation.

Activate the weather app settings to prevent the redirect when the module is disabled by default in the events calendar.
